It&#39;s almost as if you need to look over your shoulder at someone who&#39;s saying, yes, she really is this exasperating!<br /><br />Yes, callmemadam, it does bring home how much of the Cazalets was autobiographical. Thr Artemis Cooper book will leave you reeling because EJH&#39;s love life was a car crash. I think I&#39;d sooner read the novels than read about the novels, though.

I think EH&#39;s life is easier to cope with when the author has a bit of distance.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09471221804410563557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-78928145712788489802017-06-16T00:06:26.915+01:002017-06-16T00:06:26.915+01:00I think it would have been better to read Slipstre...I think it would have been better to read Slipstream first, Veronica; it feels like going over old ground now.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17554985023503646664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-56872641416483026502017-06-15T21:45:44.831+01:002017-06-15T21:45:44.831+01:00I read the Artemis Cooper bio and thoroughly enjoy...I read the Artemis Cooper bio and thoroughly enjoyed it.
